There are many different yoga styles. Each style has specific guidelines to follow. In general, practicing yoga, whatever the style, on a regular basis is the key to getting the benefits of the practice. Just like any other exercise, you need to devote time to yoga. Setting aside fifteen to thirty minutes a session is an adequate amount of time for beginners. As a beginner you may want to practice at least three to four times a week, then work your way up to a daily practice. As with any other exercises, you should wait at least four hours after a heavy meal before you practice yoga.
